From a Dental professional stand point when my son came to me and wanted to get his first tattoo I was a bit taken back and concerned (being a dentist my main concern was to make sure he was getting a tattoo from a clean, sterile, and professional shop) We did our homework and came across Living Canvas Tattoos. We came in for our consultation with Mark Walters. Together he took his time to go over what my son wanted customized it where it needed it. I was VERY Nosey and was pleasantly surprised to see that they actually had a sterile room, his shop was notably clean and well put together. Not what I was expecting from a tattoo parlor. Needless to say my experience with taking my son to get his first tattoo changed this old timers opinion of THIS particular tattoo shop. My sons tattoo came out clean and just as he hoped. The staff was friendly, the receptionist was kind and professional. Hats off to Mark Walters for really exceeding my expectations and making my son's first experience one for the books. Highly recommended
